WHAT MEASURE PROVIDES Controversy Arising From the State ments of Clergyman Lreads City Fathers to Make Beply to HIS Accusations. MINISTERIAL VIEW OF "BOX ORDINANCE SITUATION. "Take our box ordinance We had exactly -what tvc -wanted and the town needed. The Supreme Court had pro nounced upon its constitutionality. It would have saved many young; girls from ruin durlnc the last eight monthi ; hut It -rras repealed by the present Council Just aB Mayor Lane ot a hance to enforce It. Now this liquor license commltte is to recom mend Its readoptlon for political effect." Rev. Clarence True Wileon In Sunday night's sermon. "Second Among tho first things that the preeent Council did was to repeal this ordinance, making It ab solutely Impossible for the Police De partment to get at the evil for which the box stands first, last and all the time."' Rev. Andrew J. Montgom ery's view of the matter as expressed in his sermon SUncay night. 'But I am creditably Informed that these worthy representatives of a big city play the 'baby act' and quarrel among themselves. The result is we get no box ordinance whatever. In the race of all these facta I reiterate my charge that the majority of the City Council have not served the city in the interest of decent government, or they would have given us a box ordinance, Mayor or no Mayor." Ex tract from Dr. Brougher's sermon of Sunday night. Clearly, several Portland ministers are Very much in the dark on the box ordi nance situation tvhen their understanding of the status of affairs prompted them to contend in their sermons last Sunday night that this city had been without any box ordinance for several months, and that the original Albee measure had been repealed. llembers of the Council yesterday dis cussed this phase of the situation, be cause the records show that the city has never been without a box ordinance since Mayor Lane assumed the reins of munici pal government. Ordinance in Effect. Although Various attempts have been made to Becure the passage of other meas ures of this character, it Is nevertheless a iact that for several months past the fol lowing .ordinance has been in full force and effect: Section 1. 2fo person ngaged in selling spirituous, malt or fermented liquors or wines in quantities less than one quart in any saloon, bar-room or restaurant in the City of Portland shall sell any liquor to be deliverod or used, or that shall be delivered or used In any side room, back room, upper room, or other apartment in the same or an adjoining building, and hall not maintain therein or connect therewith any alcove. looth or box. or aball have or maintain any private or separate entrance for any par ticular claws of customers, or any words or sign upon any entrance signifying that such entrance Is for ladles -or families, or for any particular class of persons, or Is a private entrance to euch bar-room, saloon or restau rant, or to any other apartment -used In connection therewith. Section 2. It shall be unlawful for any person to conduct, carry on, open or main tain any restaurant, bar-room or saloon within the City of Portland that has con nected therewith any box. booth, stall, or any private room; provided, however, that this ordinance shall not apply to a private room having a floor space of more than ICO square feet, nor shall It apply to restaurants in which spirituous, malt or fermented liquors or wine are not sold, and in which such box, booth, stall or private room is so constructed as to be entirely open upon the ylde facing any hall, stairway, passageway or room. And the side thereof do not ex ceed seven feet In height: provided, that nothing herein contained shall prohibit tile serving of such liquor to guests in a hotel having a valid license to sell the same. Is. Generally Observed. Xot only has this ordinanco been In ef fect all along, but information gathered by The Oregonian at police headquarters last tilgbt indicates that in the main it lias been carefully observed by saloons and restaurants throughout the city. A few isolated cases have been reported where attempts have been made to evade Its provisions, but generally speaking It is a law that has been respected by the local saloonmen and restaurant-keepers. "I heard Dr. Brougher deliver his sermon last Sunday night," said Coun cilman Hugh W. Wallace, of the. Sec ond "Ward, "and It was some time be fore I could determine whether I was in a house of worship or a circus. There was an orchestra in attendance, and be tween prayers the strains of 'Dixie Land,' and other airs more or less lack ing' In divinity, enlivened the surround ings. Dr. Brougrher excused himself -after baptisipg several converts on the . stage, and later ?on appeared arrayed in flashing- diamonds and fine linen. Including- a white vest. It 6truck me as being-. &, little .bit out of the ordinary, and that the reverend gentleman was clven very much to sensationalism. Disclaims Right to Criticise. , "However, I do not claim any right to criticise him on this account. In the presence of 2000 or 3000 people he pro ceeded to cast reflections upon mem bers of the Council which are not borne out by the facts, and, to put It mildly, are not true, as anybody can ascertain upon inquiry." Councilman Shepherd, who was also present, has requested Dr. Brougher to permit him to make reply from the 'same pulpit next "Sunday evening. Tho pastor of the White Temple stated last night that it was a mistake to suppose that he had challenged any member of the Council to public debate, and denied having made such a statement In his sermon. Howover, he had taken Coun cilman Shepherd's proposition under -consideration, he s&ifi. and would reach a definite conclusion on the subject to night, after consultation with the board of managers of the First Baptist Church. Information From Mayor. Dr. Brougher stated further that on all matters .pertaining to the Council men's support of the Mayor in connec tion with box ordinances, he grot his information direct from Mayor Lane. In disclaiming all personal animosity to ward any of the Councilmen. Dr. Brougher said: "My only desire is that -we should have a cood box erdlnance that would protect our young: ihcb and 'women from "being easily eaticed late sin and ruin. If the Councilmen are ready to give us good laws and clean government, I shall be ten times as quick to coramend them as I have been to condemn them' He admitted also that & box ordinance had been In ex istence all along:, but thought it had. been tinkered with by the Councilmen to such an extent In their efforts to se cure other legislation, that it had been practically nullified. He did not wish to create the impression, he. said, that there was absolutely no box ordinance in existence. PLEADS FOR A LICENSE Harry Bowcn Wants to Reopen the 1 Itcy Saloon. Harry Bowcn, of El Rcy saloon notori ety, who was, denied a license on the. first of the year by the liquor license committee of the Council, appeared before the body yesterday with a request for a hearing, .which will probably be accorded him at the next meeting.

A complimentary public lecture on Christian Science will be given at Be lasco Theater next Friday night. Mrs. Sue Harper Mims, C- S. D., of Atlanta, Georgia, member of the Christian Sci ence board of lectureship of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, Boston, will be the speaker. The local churches of this denomi nation recently learned that Mrs. Mims would pass through this city from Southern California and at once made arrangements to take advantage of the opportunity to have this emi nent Christian Scientist address a Fort land audience. Mrs. Mims is the wife of Major Liv ingstone Mims, ex-Mayor of Atlanta, and belongs to an old -and distinguished Southern family of Scotch ancestry. She has been a conspicuous factor in Southern life, has always stood for idealism and has attracted to her home the most eminent, distinguished and brilliant people of the section. She has been a frequent contributor to the pub lie press on ethical and literary sub jects. About 20 years ago she devoted her life unrcserve.dly to the cause o Christian Science, becoming a student and folower of Mrs. Eddy. Mrs. Mims was a pioneer worker in the South in this movement, and has labored successfully as practitioner, reader, teacher and fecturer. She pos sesses remarkable power as a public speaker, and has a cultured, impressive style and a sympathetic and attractive manner. 1 It is the custom of the Christian Sci ence Churches throughout the United States to give these free public lec tures once or twice each year, their purpose being- not to proselyte or con- ert to the -doctrine, but rather to corr. rect misapprehension and r-Ivc those who wish to be corectly Informed on this -subject, now so generally before the world, an authentic statement of its teachings. Seats for tho lecture will not be re served. The doors of the Belasco The ater will be opened at 7:15 o'clock Fri day evening, and the lecture begin at 8 o'clock, after which time the doors will be closed. Portland Actress on the Valencia. Fred T. Mcfrlll says that Mildred Cole, a young- Portland actress and singer. Is believed to have been one of the passengers lost on the illfatcd steamer "Valencia. The body of a woman found also tallies with the description of Miss Cole In every detail, so it is said by her - many friends here. A Lewis and Clark souvenir and two sol itaire diamond rings were found otf the body and Miss Cole is known to have been In possession, of these. The cloth ing also corresponds In every detail according- to letters received from her friends in San Francisco, who say she left on the Valencia to go to Alaska. Miss Cole left Portland only a couple of raenths ago, playing the circuit to San 'Fraaelse. ' j 1 PRIESTS GO TO 11 Estate of Mrs. Anna Norton in Dispute. FATHER CASEY BRINGS SUIT Woman Assigns Her Property, but Afterwards, by Will, Bequeaths Xiargc Part of It to Ttcv. Father Kelly. Edmund D. Casey, a priest of the Ro mas. Catholic Church, is seeking by legal means to obtain possession of all of the properly of tho estate of the late Anna Norton, amounting to 117,000. and comprising- two notes and mortgages amount ing to 515, OCtt. and cash. Rev. Mr. BUSINESS? A QUESTION WHICH: BIDS FAIR-TO RIVAL "THAT Casey is seeking to set aside a will of Mrs. Norton In which Rev. M. J. Kelly, a priest at Condon. Of., is largely. inter ested, and the legal battle between the two gentlemen of the cloth promises be fore it has concluded to furnish facts which will make interesting reading Tor the public. Yesterday Father Casey filed a suit In the State Circuit Court against John F. Logan, attorney, to secure the mortgages, notes and money left by Mrs. Norton, of which Mr. Logan Is the legal custodian. Rev. Father Casey alleges In the com plaint that he is the owner of all of this property by virtue of three assignments made In his favor by Mrs. Norton, Octo ber 5, IKS. These assignments cover a note and mortgage for S0. another .note and mortgage for $7&K and a mortgage and note for J3K. The last was col lected by Mrs. Norton after the assign ments were made, and is now represented by 2000 cash In the form of a certificate of deposit. Mr. Logan drew the assign ments, and the understanding was that they were to be delivered to Father Casey immediately following the death cf Mrs. Norton, and she retained duplicates of them. What Lawyer Logan Says. Mrs. .Norton died January 9 last, and Mr. Logan states that he has been in formed that about a week prior to that time Father Casey introduced Father Kel ly to Mrs. Norton. Four days before her death Mr. Logan alleges Mrs. Norton sent for him and told him not to deliver the assignments to Father Casev. Thi dav JvfnrA thi end came. Mr. Logan. at her request. I wrote her will. She was very weak, and had to be nronned tin In lnd. PathprIvl- I ly was present, and also John C. ShIIIock and another witness. The bequest made in the will follows: To-SL Joseph's Church or school to be located at Condon. . To Rev. Father j M. J. Kelly, of Condon. J15CO. To the "Dominican Fathers, Portland. tt."0. To ' friends, Lizxlc McMahon, Annie O'Brien i i.Hi .ua oicvcas. caca, ana I or masses XXO. To Bishop Charles J. O'Reilly, of Baker City. $3003; and to John F. Lo gan 2M. The rest, amounting to about 5K, Is devised to Bishop Charles J. O'Reilly and Rev. M. J. Kelly for the purpose of erect- J olic hospital at Condon. What the Will Provides. The will further provides: "It Is my wish and will that any person who shall contest this will shall lose any and all right as heir, legatee or beneficiary in this will, and it is my further wish and will that if they have any right under the law that they are Ticrcby bequeathed and de vised the sum of $5." This provision was probably Intended to shut out Father Casey's claim under the assignments. Rev. E. D. Casey was for three years a priest connected with the cathedral in this city and was chancellor of the dio cese. Later he wos in Seattle under Bish op Edward O'Dea. and he subsequently went to Springfield. Mass.. and Is still a member of that diocese, on absent leave. His health has not been cood. He has been sojourning in Portland for two years ' past. Mrs. .Norton was a pioneer resi dent of Portland. Father Casey was a particular friend and took care of her for. n long time. Because of ministering to her wants and out of friendship and re gard, she transferred all of her property to him by assignment, and he claims it for his use and benefit individually. Father Kelley a number of years ago had trouble with Archbishop Gross and during their controversy Father Kelly criticised Archbishop Gro?s for appoint ing Sister William the head of a new Catholic order In this city. Judge Wolvcrton Acts. In the case of the Lambert Hoisting Engine Company vs. tho Astoria & Co lumbia River Railroad Company and the Northwest Construction Company, Judge Wolverton yesterday allowed the defend ants until March 1 within which either to appear before the court or to plead to a bill of complaint.

ASKED BY MANY FRIENDS Marlon Countyr He Declares, Has Enough Candidates for State Of 1.. JUccs, and He Would -Not ' -Weaken Their Chances. SALEM, Or., Feb. a. SpecIal.)-Ex-Governor W. P. Lord will not be a candi date for the Republican nomination for Governor at tfie coming primary election, as recently reported. In several news papers. In answer to an Inquiry by an Oregonian representative today Judge OF "WHO KILLED COCK ROBIN Lord made the first statement of his In tentions upon that subject. He unequiv ocally declares that he will not be a can didate, and has not intended to be, though he has listened to many requests from friends that he enter the race. This announcement puts something of a change upon political affairs. When It was reported that Lord would enter the Gubernatorial contest. Marlon County candidates felt that their ehances had been injured. There wa3 corresponding rejoicing among candidates from other parts of, the state, for the supposed en trance of Lord Into the race would help their chances. Lord's declination leaves the situation as it stood a week ago. When Judge Lord was asked this morn ing whether he intended to become a can didate for Governor, he answered "No." In a decisive tone that left no room for doubt as to his meaning. Continuing, he said that the announcement of his pro posed candidacy In several papers had doubtless come .through conversations with his friends, for he had given out no statement to that effect. He said that some of his friends have suggested that he become a candidate and tendered him their support, but after giving the matter some consideration, he had concluded not to enter the race for the nomination. Ho said that he thinks Marlon County al ready has enough candidates for state offices, and that any additional candldacy would be likely to lessen the county's claim for recognition In other counties of the state, and weaken the chances of all aspirants for nomination. Speaking further upon the subject. Judge Lord expressed tho opinion that the person who shall be selected for Gov ernor of the state will have an oppor tunity to put himself In touch with the sentiment of tho country, which is now actively reformatory and progressive, and by his conduct of public affairs, set an example of high ideals of public duty. He expressed the hope that the primary contest will be carried on In a spirit of good will, so that Its result will leave no trace behind of resentment or grievances to endanger or jeopardize the success of the ticket. PRACTICE IS CONDEMNED Justice Seton Says Deceptive Attach ment Notices Arc Wrongs. The practice of attorneys for collecting agencies of Ixsuing alleged attachment or ders, purporting to come from the East Side Justice of the Peace Court, yesterday received a severe castigation from Jus tice Waldemar Seton. He declared that henceforth it would not be a safe thing to do. The remarks of Justice Seton were brought out yesterday morning in the case of J. E. Adcox against Attorney M. B. Meacham, for tlSo damages and attor ney's fees, which the plaintiff alleged he had sustained by a notice signed by Meacham ordering Nelson to hold a cer tain trunk for money due William Relsch man. whereas no action had been started, nor had any such attachment ever been issued out of the East Side Justice Court The notice was headed "In the East Side Justice Court." and was In such a form as to give the impression that it was an official order from the court. Adcox started suit for damages against Attor ney Meacham. whereupon the latter- filed a demurrer on the ground that the facta were not set out sufficiently. The attorney for Meacham argued that the notice sent to Adcox was simply a per sonal notification and was not Intended to deceive. Judge Seton held that, as tho order was headed "In the- East Side Jus tice Court," and that it was marked so as to deceive the uninformed. It was a rep rehensible and unbecoming practice. Ho declared that It was meant to deceive the person receiving it. as shown on its face. He sustained the demurrer, but gave the plaintiff time in which to file an amend ed complaint. The case will then be heard on its merits. Justice Seton has the orig inal "attachment notice" In this case and he has been Informed that others of the same sort have been Issued, purporting to come from the East Side Court, where there were no cases started.
